Free and Reduced Meal Program

Richardson ISD provides free and reduced-price cafeteria meals for students from families who qualify based on federal government guidelines. The meals served each school day are offered through the National School Breakfast Program/National School Lunch Program.

NEW! Now you can apply for free or reduced school meals online! The process is quick easy and FREE, and in a few short steps you’ll be done!

Applications for meal benefits may be picked up at the school office or from the Child Nutrition Office. Applications are distributed to every student at the beginning of each school year. They are accepted throughout the school year.

To avoid delays, complete ONE application per family. Print clearly and complete all required information. List everyone in the household and an adult signature is required. Multiple or incomplete applications will delay processing.

If a student was on the meal program at the end of the last school year, the benefit will carry over for the first 30 Days of school. A new application must be submitted to continue benefits for each school year.

For more information on free and reduced applications, please contact Anna Henderson at 469-593-0108 in the Child Nutrition Office.
